Description Marek Hulan 2016-03-15 13:36:20 UTC 
Description of problem:

When I use ruby-libvirt to get information about interface, there's no information about interface type. Therefore I can't determine what interface is a bridge and what not when I want to display select box of available bridges to use for bridged networking. Only workaround I'm able to see is using xml_desc and do the parsing myself.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.6.0

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run irb
2. get the Libvirt::Interface object
3. try to determine it's type

Actual results:
no type method available

Expected results:
type method available returning the $TYPE from <interface type="$TYPE" ...> defintion
